About this event
Why is the Sonoma District Attorney supporting corporations like Petaluma Poultry and not whistleblowers? Learn more about this and the upcoming Sonoma Trial from defendants Priya Sawhney, Cassie King, and Wayne Hsiung. They will be going to trial on September 8th for actions that took place in 2018 and 2019. After a mass arrest of activists and many charges dropped, they were targeted as leaders in the movement and charged with multiple felonies and misdemeanors. Find out how you can support them and the Right to Rescue in and out of court. This is part of The Simple Heart Initiative's Open Rescue Leadership Summit (August 2023) held during the weekend at ARC West.
